A fierce Viking warrior king strides purposefully toward Valhalla, his dark warpaint streaked across his face and a rugged, scruffy black beard framing his stern, angry expression. A deep scar cuts across his cheek, a testament to countless battles. Clutching his formidable Viking ax, ready for action, he radiates a sense of both power and determination. The scene is illuminated with cinematic lighting, enveloped in volumetric rays that pierce through the moody, overcast sky. The air feels heavy, saturated with droplets, as mud drips from his worn boots, leaving a path of resilience and honor in his wake.
